OUR SERVICES
MyLondonMassage provides a booking service.
These Services allow you to book a variety of Professional massage services (Professional Services) that are carried out in each and every case by independent self-employed freelancers (Independent Freelancers). In providing the Services, MyLondonMassage acts as the agent of the Independent freelancers. MyLondonMassage bears no responsibility for Professional Services you book through us: we are only involved with the booking process as well as necessary ancillary services which help to facilitate the services available,
The Services offered on our website and app allow you to search through Our Site and purchase Professional Services from a number of Independent freelance service providers. In facilitating the purchase of Professional Services through us, we are in practice acting as commercial agents of said independent freelance service providers. As part of these services, we also provide ancillary services in addition, such as assisting with customer service issues (again in our capacity as agent for the Independent freelance service providers.)
However, as stated above, the contract for the purchase of the Professional Services is between you and the Independent freelancer. This means that the Independent freelancer is legally responsible for providing the Professional Service to you. However, MyLondonMassage remains responsible in respect of its obligations to you in accordance with Our Terms which shall be legally binding.
If you have any inquiries, grievances, or refund requests, you can reach us directly at info@mylondonmassage.com or through online chat. For inquiries about customer service, MyLondonMassage will continue to be your point of contact.
If necessary, MyLondonMassage will act as an intermediary between you and an Independent freelancer for customer service or dispute issues.
AGREEMENTS FOR SERVICES
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
When you make a booking with us, the service you receive will be subject to the Independent freelancer’s terms and conditions. You will be given the Independent freelancer’s Terms and asked to confirm your agreement with them. The Independent freelancer’s Terms are strictly between you and the Independent freelancer who offers you your Professional Service; MyLondonMassage is not a party to these terms.
BOOKING SERVICES
You can make a booking through Our Site or through Our App by choosing an independent freelance professional. You may only make a booking up to 10 days in advance. This is to ensure the reliability of our service and the accuracy of each therapist’s schedule. Payment details will be requested at the time of booking and payment will be collected when you make a booking. The Treatment Fee belongs to the Independent freelancer who provides the Professional Service and MyLondonMassage deduct our commission from said fee before you pay the balance DIRECT to the independent freelancer.
MyLondonMassage, as the Independent freelancer’s agent, collects or arranges for a third party to collect on our behalf, the Booking Fee from you.
We are appointed by Independent freelancers to conclude bookings on their behalf as their commercial agent. Once your booking is accepted by us on behalf of the and the Independent freelancer, you will receive confirmation of your appointment from us by email or whatsapp or text message.
By making a booking, you are responsible for:
– Full payment of the balance applicable Treatment Fee to the Independent Freelancer ;
– Ensuring the Independent freelancer has access to your Designated Premises which must, in all cases, represent a suitable space in which the Professional Service can be performed, with all appropriate facilities (including adequate lighting and heating); and
– Ensuring the health and safety of the Independent freelancer whilst at your Designated Premises.
PAYMENT
ONLY THE BOOKING FEE must be paid on our website, or our app.
We shall take all appropriate steps to protect your information by using an encrypted secure payment method when you pay for the Professional Service. However, in the absence of MyLondonMassage’s carelessness, we will not be held legally liable to you for any losses you could incur if a third party obtains unauthorised access to any information you might ever give us.
All payments by credit card or debit card need to be authorised by the relevant card issuer. We may also need to use extra security steps via Verified by Visa where applicable.
By making a booking or purchase you agree to provide complete, correct and true information including without limitation billing and payment information.
PRICES
All fees and charges are inclusive of VAT where applicable or unless specified otherwise.
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
The cost of Professional Services (each a “Treatment Price” and collectively “Treatment Prices”) varies depending on the kind and length of Professional Services you order, as well as the location of the premises you’ve designated for the Independent freelancer to perform Professional Services for you (“Designated Premises”).
Treatment Prices are set from time to time and the Treatment Price you will be required to pay for a specific Professional Service (each a “Treatment Fee” and collectively “Treatment Fees”) will be determined by reference to the Treatment Prices in force at the date when that Professional Service is booked.
Our site and our app have comprehensive information about Treatment Prices. Treatment costs are subject to change at any time and based on shifts in demand throughout the platform, but changes won’t have an impact on any reservations you’ve previously made.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
You are accountable for providing complete and accurate information at the time of booking or purchase in addition to the duties listed above. If you don’t give complete and accurate information, your booking request might be denied, your reservation might be cancelled, the booked Independent freelancer might be unable to offer the Professional Service as asked. In the event of such failure, your payments may not be entitled for a refund and your booking or Order Confirmation may be lost.
CANCELLATIONS AND REFUNDS
You agree that you have no legal authority to revoke a Professional Service reservation. However, under the following conditions and under the outlined parameters, you have the right to cancel any booking you have made through us with an Independent freelancer.
If your cancellation of a booking is within two (2) hours of the Appointment Time the Independent freelancer will be entitled to retain (or charge, as the case may be) one hundred per cent (100%) of the applicable Treatment Fee because your cancellation represents a Very Late Cancellation and you will be charged by us for this.
You will also be charged the full Treatment Fee if you:
– Fail to show up for a reservation at the scheduled location and/or time.
– Give inaccurate instructions for your independent contractor to visit the designated location.
– Fail to provide complete and accurate contact information, including full name, address, phone number, and email Request or make reference to the provision of any sexual services from the independent freelancer
As it is unreasonable to expect the Independent freelancer to be able to perform a Professional Service at another booking where you cancel with little to no notice, a cancellation fee is imposed to make up for the Independent freelancer’s loss of income.
If for valid circumstances that were beyond your control, you were unable to cancel a booking without paying the cancellation fee, we may, in our sole discretion, waive the cancellation cost. We represent the Independent contractor who is the principal in providing the Professional Service when we waive cancellation costs.
DELAYS
If you wish to extend the time you have booked a Professional Service, the Independent freelancer will endeavour to fulfil your request. This is subject to the availability of the Independent freelancer and payment of an additional charge for the extended time calculated in accordance with the Treatment Prices.
If you are delayed and unable to start the Professional Service at the Designated Premises at the Appointment Time by more than 10 minutes then, unless the Independent freelancer agrees to the contrary (which is within the sole discretion of the Independent freelancer):
the Independent freelancer is entitled to end the Professional Service at the time agreed when the booking was made without making any adjustment to the Treatment Price to reflect the reduced time of the Professional Service; or if you and the Independent freelancer agree to proceed with the Professional Service for the full time allotted notwithstanding the delayed start time, then you shall be obliged to pay before the relevant Professional Service is given, an additional charge calculated at the rate set out with the Treatment Prices for extra time. We will collect the Extra Time Charges as agent of the Independent freelancer.
